random thoughts

[ or: i simply can't think of a better title for this entry ]

currently listening to: "get it started" by black-eyed peas [ ooh, hip hop. ]

i'm supposed to be studying for the labor midterms, but procrastinating is just so much fun.

yesterday, we spent the whole day finding a labor dispute case for labor relations class. what was supposed to be a 2 hour activity in TUCP (how exciting :P~) turned out to be a whole day event [ thanks to the some very "helpful" individuals in TUCP who insist that they burn all their records and my superb driving skills that got us lost and circling the makati area for a full hour.. ]. i was with chi, nico and oggs. we waited the whole morning in TUCP for the lawyer we talked to before, but since it was getting late, we were told to just talk to another lawyer. we were able to get a case, but we wanted to have other options so we proceeded to my dad's office after eating at super bowl along jupiter st. at the end of the day, we were so wasted we literally laughed at almost anything. hehe. as if doesn't happen on normal days.

yesterday seemed to be a good ending to a terrible week. since last friday's agency exam, i've been having doubts about law school again since i feel that i don't seem to excel no matter how much i study, and other people who don't study as much as i do are performing better. i've succumbed to the thought that yes, i'm just inherently less intelligent than the rest of the batch and if i want to measure up to them, i should probably stop doing everything else and devote each hour of the day studying. spending the whole day with my friends yesterday didn't change that main thought, but at least it was a good break from the stress and boredom of law school.

these are some pictures from yesterday's "field trip". no, we didn't pose intentionally under the labor union logos because we think they're nice. most of the pictures here are needed for class [ proof that we're actually doing something ].







oggs, chi, the lawyer from TUCP and me




spot the difference :P




this was taken at my dad's firm library. gawd i look fat in this picture.




hehe i can't help but smile when looking at these pictures. feeling totoong lawyers na kami lahat when, to quote nico, we looked more like union members. hehe. the more i look at these pics, the more i feel out of place in the profession i'm trying to pursue. i honestly don't belong. bakit nga ba ako andito?


again, feeling artsy pics:





my dad's office



the starbucks branch in the same building where we stayed while waiting for the xerox. we [ except nico ] all ordered marshmallow mocha [ it's goood! ]

i download free mp3's. so sue me.

i promised myself more than a year ago that i'll stop downloading mp3's from the net and instead buy original cd's everytime. well, the idea didn't really materialize because of my regard for ethics and the law; kazaa just became too unreliable and inconvenient for a dial-up user. well, the whole "stop piracy" stand didn't last long. for one, didn't prove to be too allowance-friendly . also, i now have a stock of cd's i don't listen much to anymore because i only like 1/2 songs in the entire album, and by now i've grown tired of them already. they're now left scattered all over my room. and so, i decided to download the kazaa program again just last week. 'turned out it was probably the virus that was slowing down my computer before and not really the program itself, and the program is still very good. i downloaded a lot of songs already [ jars of clay's "show you love", frou frou's "let go", yes, including blackeyed peas' "let's get started" and some unpopular ones like longwave's "tidal wave" and pitty sing's "radio" ] and i also compiled my first cd since my college days [ specifically january 2003 ] which i'm loving so much right now. this is a big deal for me - the college cd held a lot of good memories and it took me quite a long time to get over it [ i still miss college a lot ]. but now i'm very happy with this new cd and it's the only set i've listened to since i burned it. it's like letting go of a used-to-be-perfect pair of jeans that don't fit you anymore because you've gained a lot of weight, and then finding a new pair that is two sizes bigger but suits you just as perfectly. [ sorry if i don't make sense. at pasensya na sa kababawan. hehe ] wala lang.
